3rd Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Record of 0-5 this term for new yard but has been working her way into form, including over C&D; not dismissed off current mark. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Caught the eye dropped to a 0-70 for the first time at Kempton (6f) four weeks ago, beaten only just over 2l despite being repeatedly denied a clear run; the return to 7f should help if anything and Patrick Chamings is among the winners so there are reasons to be hopeful. |

3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

She has slipped down the weights and there was more encouragement to be gleaned from her Goodwood fifth last month (7f, soft); drops in class today and Jim Crowley is booked; interesting. |

11st 5lb |
Record of 211 since wearing visor, the wins at Southwell (7f, AW) and Newmarket (1m, good to firm); back on career-high mark and back up in class but may have more to offer in the retained headgear. |
12/1 |

1st 1 (3) |
15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner for Charlie Johnston in June 2023; off the mark for this yard over 7f at Southwell when visored for only a second time and he kept on gamely; just 3lb higher. |
3/1 |
|
2 (1) |
1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
0-14 since a 1m Newmarket handicap win for Charlie Johnston in June 2023, but latest 1m Doncaster second was only his second outing for Denis Quinn and he went through that race as if this drop back to 7f may be in his favour. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time Tapeta winner who resumes from eight months off on a career-high mark; gone well fresh before but is used to plying his trade in lesser company and may need some help from the handicapper. |
12/1 |
|
2 (13) |
31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Scored four times on AW last winter; opened his turf account with Brighton success (7f, good to firm) latest start, taking record here to 27221; likely player, provided he copes with drop in trip. |
9/2 |
|
2 (3) |
19th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Four-time Tapeta winner who twice went close over C&D earlier in the summer; has had his moments at the stalls, can pull hard and will always need races to set up given his run style, but he's one to consider; blinkers return. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Added to his three AW wins when justifying favouritism over C&D (good) last week; goes back up in grade under a penalty but he was as good as ever last time and he's effective on good to firm; shortlisted. |
9/2 |
|
1st 8 (8) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
His three wins have all come at Kempton (7f/1m) but he is fully effective on turf, runner-up over C&D (soft) last week; won't be far away with a repeat. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 9 (1) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
All three of his wins have been at Kempton (7f/1m) but he was runner-up here over 1m last April (good to firm); has posted two solid efforts on the AW since returning from a break and has place claims back on turf. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Dead-heated at Kempton (7f, AW) last August; fourth in his first two starts this year and bounced back from a lesser effort when runner-up at Lingfield (7f, AW) nine days ago; 2lb well in and looks a contender. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
26th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has raced 13 times, mostly on AW; hooded when creditable fourth over 7f on AW here and at Chelmsford this summer; form took a dip at Southwell last time but he's another that can't be totally ruled out. |
9/1 |
|
5 (9) |
1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Has raced 12 times, mostly on AW; creditable fourth over 7f on AW at Lingfield and Chelmsford this summer and being eased another 2lb can only help. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a 7f handicap at Southwell on his second run back with Dean Ivory; unable to back it up in a Class 5 a fortnight later; fully effective over C&D but others appear to hold stronger claims. |
12/1 |
|
6th 5 (8) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Beat only one rival home at Chelmsford (1m, AW) on his first start since returning to this yard following a 161-day break, but he stepped forward from that when winning over this C&D 15 days ago; up in grade following a 3lb rise. |
7/1 |
|
1st 3 (11) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Back with former yard after five months off but beat just one in 1m Chelmsford handicap three weeks ago; a fair 7f winner at his best, so he can't be totally dismissed with that run under his belt. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner in August and closely matched with Hilltop on run here last month; stall 11 draw means that form may not be reversed here, though. |
6/1 |
|
5 (10) |
20th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won this last year off 1lb lower and took her record over C&D to 121 when going in off 2lb lower one month ago; often dropped in and likely will be again from the outside stall; holds decent claims. |
3/1 |
|
3 (5) |
19th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Narrow C&D winner off a pound higher mark last September (only just beaten over C&D next time); not in quite such good form this year, best run when second at Southwell in June (7f); fared less well there last time but quite interesting back here (course record is 2124). |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Generally very consistent over 7f last season but disappointed over that trip on recent seasonal debut and may find 6f here a bit sharp. |
10/1 |
|
10th 8 (1) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Scored over C&D last July and in good form after until finishing only eighth in 7f Redcar handicap on his final run; this reliable sort can't be discounted despite a six-month absence. |
10/1 |
|
1 (9) |
17th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Beaten favourite in similar event over C&D last time and is still on career-high mark but remains in a very consistent vein of form that now reads 23313323 since April; solid. |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Standing dish at Ripon, where he's recorded ten of his 12 wins; his 71st start is his first here; below par in both starts this season; drops 2lb but perhaps needs further favours from the handicapper to win again. |
10/1 |
|
6th 3 (3) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Ten-time course winner who ended last season with two wins (6f/5f) at Ripon; struggled on Thirsk reappearance last month but he doesn't have a great record when fresh and he's not ruled out back at his favoured track; acts on good to firm and soft. |
11/2 |
|
15th 2 (2) |
10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Best known as a Ripon specialist with ten wins there, including his last two starts of 2025; has won fresh, but has tended to need his reappearance in recent years. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Hasn't built on last summer's 7f Kempton debut sixth in two turf outings in recent months, but needs a betting check now handicapping against much more exposed opposition. |
14/1 |
|
1 (3) |
2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Neither run, both over 7f, has been devoid of promise but he will need to raise his game to come out on top here; handicaps beckon. |
16/1 |
|
1 (4) |
7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Cost £80,000 as a yearling, but was 28-1 on Kempton debut (7f, AW) last August and he faded into sixth of ten; returns after 283 days off and he needs plenty of improvement on this switch to turf. |
